Bless our school
that working together and playing together
We may learn to serve you and to serve others.
This is our school,
Let peace dwell here.
Let the rooms be full of contentment
Let love abide here.
Love of God
Love of mankind
and love of life itself.
Let us always remember that as many hands build a house
as many hearts make a school.
Thank you for the world so sweet,
Thank you for the food we eat.
Thank you for the birds that sing.
Thank you God for everything.
Hands together softly so,
Little eyes shut tight.
Father just before we go
Hear our prayers tonight.
We are all your children here,
This is what we pray,
Keep us when the dark is near
and through every day.
Lord keep us safe this night
Secure from all our fears
May angels guard us while we sleep
'Till morning light appears
Lord of the loving heart
May mine be loving too.
Lord of the gentle hands
May mine be gentle too
Lord of the willing feet
May mine be willing too
So may we grow more like you in all we say and do.
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
as we forgive those who sin against us.
Lead us not into temptation
but deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power,
and the glory are yours
now and for ever.
Amen.
